Scratches on driver head...

I had an idiot trip over my driver that was in the rack at the range and sent it skidding along the concrete...needless to say the side has a few big paint chips and scratches on it...what tips (besides taking out my rage on the poor dunce) if any can be done about this? I have heard mention of similar color car waxes being buffed in, any other suggestions? Luckily at address the scratches are not visable...

owwwwwwwww, yep you'll wanna check the club paint out, that might be your solution, as far as dings, they are hard to fix, thank the idiot who knocked your club over for that, aint that just a way to screw a range time up

Crazy thing is I played some of my best driver shots in my last 10 rounds today...I was all ready to trade in and now it seems that thankfully I wouldn't be able to get a good trade value...stuck with a club that started working again...no dings though...I was thinking about car touch up paint since the only real concern is for rusting as I can't see the marks at address...

You'd probably get more money selling it outright anyways than trading it in. Might be worth a shot.

Sounds like divine intervention by the golf-gods!?

Don't worry about rust. Titanium doesn't rust.
